And I know they're trying to explain why he's so successful
But it’s impossible to see by just watching Lee pitch. You don’t see anything special at all. I can’t make any sense of it.
Not in the second half, no.
He has not looked sharp, and he doesn’t look sharp tonight. He’s just being given calls.

this game’s not likely to have a better highlight than KK shutting up VC’s rangers love…
KK: and in that time, the A’s have been to the post season five times.
VC: yes they have.
KK: and the rangers haven’t.
VC: no they haven’t
(and he hasn’t spoken since)
really don't care if i ever get back.

Just thought of the best sign to hang in the OF when we play Tex in OAK
a big black sign, with 3 large “lines” of flour, and a giant straw hanging next to it. Thats it, just hanging off the bleachers in Left Field.

It's the wrong thing to after him for, in my opinion, but I wouldn't cut him any slack because of who he is.
He suits up in a Rangers uniform now – he’s the enemy.

They're really bad at that.
Was it the Angels game where they showed all the home runs the Angels had hit against us in the previous series? Clearly they don’t know their audience.
"You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig."
"Josh Hamilton - I'll just put up my glove and see if I can catch it."
Erm no. That’s a huge disservice to Hamilton there. He made a fantastic catch – give credit where it’s due.

Cut him some slack
One run in 5 innings in that park against that offense.
And I get that we need him to go longer without Bailey
But he’s giving us a terrific outing.
